Create a Mobile Workflow Package Manually

While using the Mobile Workflow Forms Editor is the easiest and fastest way to develop and customize mobile workflow applications, it is also possible to develop a mobile workflow package outside of the constraints of the Mobile Workflow Forms Editor.

Developing a mobile workflow application this way allows you to use of a greater variety of application designs, from using different HTML formatting to using different Web application frameworks, and beyond. It should be emphasized, however, that the Mobile Workflow Forms Editor does a lot of the work to seamlessly support multiple platforms, which you must duplicate if you choose not to use it.

Note: When writing your own HTML and JavaScript to create a Mobile Workflow package manually, there is one absolute requirement—you must implement the following JavaScript function:

function processWorkflowMessage(incomingWorkflowMessage)

The Workflow container needs to call this function when online request processing is complete. The incoming workflow message is an XML-formatted string.
